February is known as “Love Month.” The focus on relationships is either celebrated or dreaded depending on your status. Love focuses on another person’s well-being, growth, freedom, and individuality. Attachment is conditional and focused on personal safety, comfort, or validation. Is “falling in love” about how the other person makes you feel about yourself?

These are the top five concepts that I embraced for personal growth in 2025.  Remove Expectations, Courage to Change, Self-Awareness, Values & Everything is Temporary.
“The circus remains in town” (Anne Lamott). The illusions are built with bright and shiny things. Deceptions and distractions. Thankfully, my time there was temporary.
